Install/Maintenance

Installation

The flow direction is indicated by arrows and must be observed. The filters can be installed in any position, however, we recommend that filter units are mounted vertically with the cover uppermost. This will assist the separation and collection of any water and particulate into the bottom of the housing ready for drain off (water separation of diesel fuel will only take place at lower flow rates).

Servicing

Due to the simple and effective construction very little maintenance is required other than draining off any impurities, and the periodic removal of the washable element for cleaning.

Cleaning the filter is carried out by unscrewing the central bolt and then unscrewing the bowl. Carefully wash the filtering element with clean diesel, gas-oil or gasoline. Remount the unit and check that the seals are integral and well placed. Paper elements should be replaced as they cannot be reused (see above spares). Water can be drained by opening the bleed screw on the lid and then the water drain at the bottom of the bowl.
